mitt romney spelled that out very clearly. the sanctions in place now are only in place because of bipartisan opposition to the president's unwillingness to put these sanctions in place in the first place. look, what we see was a huge difference in defense. we have $1 trillion in defense cuts coming down the pike which will hollow out our military, we don't agree with that. >> sir, you voted for those defense cuts? >> no, i did not support the president's -- you have to understand we have a third round of defense cuts coming. we obviously oboes the obama budget and let's never forget it was the president who insisted that these defense cuts be part of this sequester bill. i wrote the legislation preventing them from happening to cut spending elsewhere so that these devastating defense cuts don't occur but the president has not done a single thing to prevent them from happening. >> tonight governor romney said that the sanctions against iran were working. >> that's right. >> would a romney administration sit down and have bilat

that's why you'll see so much time spent by governor romney and congressman romney before the debate. denver is out of reach in ohio for governor romney and now it's a very, very close race. it's anywhere from president obama with a slight lead, so it will come down to the wire. >> karen, when you break down the ohio numbers further. it's interesting when you look especially at those who will vote early, the obama folks win about six out of ten early voters, but losing those who say they're going to vote on election day, 44 to 51, romney to 51. what's the story there, is it potentially that the obama campaign is peaking too early with the early voters? >> i don't think so. i think that's great spin from the romney campaign, and if i was in the romney campaign i would probably be saying that as well. early voters tend to be what we call sporadic voters. it's a different universe of voters than those that vote on election day. they're people who don't necessarily vote on any election, presidential, midterm, you name it. so by targeting people, the sporadic voters to get them out to vote

i think romney had some momentum. but i think in the last debate, obama came out very strong and probably over the next couple of weeks we'll see that play out in the polls and he may get a little bit of a bounce. we'll have to see. >> there are always some highlights, some zingers, a few mistakes. do you think one candidate had more than the other? >> obama certainly had a few zingers and came off with the bayonets line and hit with the 1980s want their foreign policy back. but romney made a few claims like talking about the $1 trillion cuts to the defense, which is not entirely accurate. that's part of the sequestration process that was a bipartisan agreement that congress passed that over eight years they'll cut that. only half of that is defense and that's probably not going to take place because congress is going to put something else in place before the end of the year. >> fact checkers are having a field day with this one. governor romney certainly saw a boost after the first presidential debate. do you think t
